A Sumatran Tiger cub walks past a young child behind a glass wall after they were put on public display for the first time at Taronga Zoo December 28. The cub is from a litter of three, and is their Mother's second litter at the Zoo. Researchers have predicted that by the year 2000, the tigers will be extinct in the wild, making such successful raising of the species in captivity an important and significant event.
